Question: 323
6. Transparent is to translucent as
- A. water is to milk
- B. glass is to crystal
- C. translucent is to opaque
- D. muddy is to clear
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
The correct answer is (C). The relationship is one of degree. Translucent is denser than transparent, that is, one can actually see through something that is transparent whereas only light passes through a translucent medium. Carrying on to the next degree, opaque is denser than translucent. Not even light can pass through something that is opaque. Choice (A) is incorrect because it skips a degree and jumps from transparent to opaque. Choice (D) reverses the order. Glass and crystal, choice (B), may both be transparent.
